If a data mismatch is detected during the audit, messages in the RASlog will provide a summary of all errors detected
and prompt you through a data recovery process. The data recovery mechanism may vary depending on the error
encountered and the data being compared. Problems such as a mismatch between license IDs cannot be fixed with
, and the output will direct you to call Brocade Technical Support. For other problems, running
wwnrecover
can pinpoint the problem and, in some cases, permit you to fix it. Mismatched data can be resolved, and corrupt data can
sometimes be recovered.
The following table lists RASlog messages that can occur during the WWN card audit routine.
